These are the resources that I’d want to have if I was to learn about pandoc (the universal document converter) all over again: Installing latest release The GitHub release page has installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Docker images There are three types of pandoc Docker images: minimal – very small, just the bare pandoc binary; core – includes pandoc-crossref and helpers programs, e.g. those used by pandoc for SVG image conversion;

A question came up on the Lua mailing list, asking whether there was a PDF version of the Lua manual. This is, of course, the home domain of pandoc, and I got nerd-sniped into producing a PDF (and ePUB) version of the manual. This is a good opportunity to showcase some pandoc features. The post describes the process of going from an HTML web page to a PDF file via LaTeX and pandoc. We will see how to quickly convert documents with pandoc;

My first exposure to Lua has been as a pandoc user, and adding new Lua features to pandoc turned Lua into one of my favorite languages. In this post I will take a look at pandoc, the universal document converter, and explore how one can script and extend it with Lua. Pandoc includes a Lua interpreter since 2012, but the integration of Lua has been expanded significantly with the latest 2.0 release.
